Thousands of the best free iPhone and iPad games are available to download for free. The sheer selection is part of the reason the iPhone is among the best phones on sale today. The snag is that many are awful to the point they’d be an embarrassment on a 1980s home computer – or packed with enough freemium gunk to suffocate a hippo. However, the standouts are some of the best free games around for mobile. That’s what we’re interested in at Stuff: the very best iPhone and iPad games to play today! To help you find your next mobile obsession,…

If you’ve ever tried to get back into a sport you were halfway decent at in school, you’ll know the soul-crushing reality of muscle memory giving you the middle finger. It’s a reality I’ve found myself living in – once a fairly capable tennis player, now dodging serves. Unfortunately, I missed seeing the device at IFA 2025, so when I was offered the chance to play against Acemate’s Tennis Robot at CES 2026, I had to give it a try.

Free and open-source music player apps are appealing to audiophiles and music lovers who want a subscription-free listening experience. There are many open-source music players for Android out there, and I’ve tried a handful of them, including Harmony Music, OuterTune, and PixelPlay. In fact, GitHub users rounded up 24 free and open-source music players for Android in a repository, so they’re easy to find and navigate. However, if you’re new to the world of FOSS players, you might be wondering where to start. After trying the best ones, my top pick is Echo, an extension-based music player that leverages both…

A 4K TV should always look incredible, but if yours doesn’t, the issue may not be the panel or the content. More often than not, it’s the default settings that make your TV appear softer or blurry. Modern smart TVs come packed with more picture settings than you ever care to explore. The unfortunate thing is, not all of them are designed to deliver the best possible image. Some are configured to make the TV eye-catching on a showroom floor, while others are meant to reduce energy consumption. All of this affects the picture quality in different ways, but the…

Dolby Atmos is an immersive audio format that allows for further detail and spatial sound effects than a typical stereo recording. With songs mixed in Dolby Atmos, you can hear an object-based audio experience that places sounds spatially in your surroundings, including above and below you. Recordings mastered in Dolby Atmos provide a rich listening experience while retaining relatively low file sizes, making them an excellent option for music streamers on platforms like Apple Music, Amazon Music, and Tidal. That all makes Dolby Atmos sound great, but until music streaming services make it possible to download songs in both lossless…

2025 is over, but it’s not too late to complain about it. We already hit you with the most disappointing TV shows of 2025. Now we go to the movies. A note before we start: we’re not necessarily talking about bad movies, just disappointing ones. For instance, The Electric State and War of the Worlds are widely considered two of the worst movies of 2025, but how can you be disappointed if you didn’t expect them to be good in the first place? Then again, a movie can be bad and disappointing. Let’s see if any hit those magic numbers.…

Don’t you love it when you pay extra money each month for ad-free listening, only to get ads on top of the ads that are already placed in a podcast? It’s a great feeling, isn’t it? If you can’t tell, I’m being incredibly sarcastic — I’m fine if podcasters throw their own ads in, but when Spotify started putting additional ads on top of it? It was time to make a change to something different. That’s when I discovered AntennaPod, an open-source podcasting app that features no on-screen ads, is incredibly simple to navigate, and offers all the same features…

I’ll be honest. I’ve never really understood sporty SUVs. You either get a large and comfortable but slow SUV like a Range Rover, or a low, sexy, impractical supercar like the Aston Martin V12 Vanquish. But one filthy December night, with rain hammering sideways, roads shining black under headlights, hands cold even before I’d opened the door, the Aston Martin DBX S made its case. And annoyingly, it did a very good job. My drive started late after a long day of festive celebrations. I didn’t fancy driving at all, especially a 727PS luxury SUV on sodden British roads. The…

I live in the UK and so January is grim. Christmas is over and all that’s left to look forward to is months of grey until the sun finally pierces the clouds sometime towards the end of March. To make matters worse, tradition dictates I should prime myself for subsequent disappointment by announcing resolutions designed to make me a better person. Because I write about gadgets, phones and tech, mine are about that. Feel free to steal the ideas yourself, but don’t @ me in December when you’ve failed to complete any and end up desperately asking ChatGPT about how to blaze…

I, like most people, could spend less time on my phone. I’m already better than I used to be. The first thing I do when setting up a new handset is turn off every notification. All of them. I think they’re a massive distraction, and I genuinely hate the way they tug at your attention like an impatient child. I’ve also ditched my smartwatch for a screen-free smart ring, which feels like a small but meaningful win. And yet. It still doesn’t feel like enough. That’s why my tech resolution for 2026 is simple: explore more single-function devices. The problem…
